Vicky no longer cared much about Girty being there. It wasn't as if she was competition or anything, she was merely his sister and could never give him what Vicky could. For the moment she was quiet and calm simply because she wanted Dan awake again so they could leave the castle together and start their lives together th way she had pictured it only a few moments before. So if taking him to the hospital wing would fix things then that was fine with her.
She was so consumed by the magic of the love potion that she forgot all about classes being in session. How odd it would look to some poor unsuspecting straggler seeing the Charms professor, her assistant, and the Headmaster (who was out cold= walk out of an empty room together. Lucky for her she wasn't thinking of these things or she would have been freaking out like she had when they got caught earlier.
She laughed as she remembered the Ravenclaw prefects reaction. "Man that Claw was shocked to see us in here" Vicky mumbled loudly as she did what Girty asked and grabbed Dan's head to keep it from rolling around from side to side. "She's probably telling the whole school that Dan and I are in love. Did you know Dan and I are in love Girty. We plan to leave here and start a new life somewhere once he's conscious again. Poor baby is going to feel that one in the morning, but I'll nurse him back to health" she babbled on in her love induced high.

Girty quickly made her way along the corridor and with every bend in the corridor they reached the Hufflepuff would nervously look around each corner just to make sure no one was waiting around the corner with a camera ready to sell the picture to the Daily Prophet. She could just imagine the headlines now to match the pictures of Vicky’s blooded face, Dan’s unconscious body and her own rather pale scared face. Thankfully however there were no reporters and they were able to creep though the corridor although it was not exactly quiet seeing as Vicky was still rambling away.
At first Girty just politely nodded along not really paying any attention to whatever the Professor was rambling about but it soon dawned on her that she mentioned that someone else had seen them and a Ravenclaw at that. The Hufflepuff’s eyes grew wide and panic seemed to make her feet become glued to the stone flooring of the long castle corridor. Slowly licking her lips Girty managed to turn around, her heart pounding and eyes unblinking fixed upon Victoria. “Somebody…somebody else saw you.” If it was possible Girty’s features were becoming even paler. “Who? Who saw you?”
Demanding and authoritative was her tone and for a situation like this it seemed to be the only one that truly made any sense to her. In her mind Victoria was a five year old and the only way you could deal with someone who had the mental capacity and attention span of someone who is not even old enough to tie their own shoelaces was to state the obvious, patronise them but to wear that same caring smile all the while. The slight problem with this was that Girty was finding it very hard to wear the smile as she could not stop her imagination from playing situations over and over in her mind, situations where Dia found out, believed the Ravenclaw over her (something that she would not put past her sister-in-law) and to leave Dan on the spot and if that was to happen Girty would be the one to pick up all the pieces. That was something she could not bare to do.
“Professor, please tell me who saw you?”

She couldn't keep her mouth shut it was like her mouth was under the control of someone else. So walking the halls with Girty the only sound anyone could hear besides their footsteps was Vicky's mouth. She didn't even know what she was talking about after she uttered the words she seemed to forget them. It felt nice not having to think so much, all her thoughts the one's she was having were all on Dan. A one tract mind they called it.
So when Girty stopped Vicky was still babbling on "So then we'll have a few kids maybe one boy and one girl I think he will like that. I will like that. He seems like he'd be a good father, but I won't let him raise our son too much, don't know why but I think Dan would taint him somehow." For a while she didn't note Girty paying attention to her after so long. Something Vicky said got her attention. She was probably excited about being an auntie.
So Vicky stopped her mouth shut for a few minutes, turning to look at Girty but all she wanted to know about was who saw her and Dan in the classroom earlier. Vicky didn't remember things before drinking the tea too clearly. Yes someone did walk in but she was having so much trouble trying to put a face to the visitor much less a name. Biting her bottom lip she tried to give the younger woman the answer since it seemed so important to her.
"Um she had dark hair, kind of pretty, dead nosy, and a bit of a snot. Didn't seem to like Dan much." At the sound of Dan's name she tried to remember his words to the girl which was how she came about the name "Dan called her Miss Locke I think." That was about as much as Vicky could tell Girty. She just wasn't sure why it mattered at all. Why should a student care about the love she shared with Dan. "No need to worry Dan told her something, don't remember what though. She should have minded her own business. Enough about that let's get Dan better we have plans to make."

Ask Girty what she had been planning to do that day and dragging her brother’s unconscious corpse around the castle was not really on the top of her priorities. In fact has anyone actually told her that this is what she would have been doing then she most likely would have laughed in their face and accused them of being slightly gone in the head. Now she was really the one who needed a bit of help as she was paranoid that someone was going to catch them, questions will be asked and BAM hello St Mungo’s and divorce courts. But for now neither of those were a problem, the problem was trying to get some sense out of the rambling Professor Potter.
“Did not like Dan, well that narrows it down.” Girty muttered sarcastically to herself as she gave a slight huff and looked over at the floating body of her unconscious brother. Still however the Charms Professor carried to rabbit away until finally she gave Girty a name and straight away the Hufflepuff knew who she meant. Out of the whole student population why did it have to be Felicity Locke, why did it have to be the Ravenclaw prefect who would no doubt out of sheer loyalty go and tell Dia? But this was not really the time to worry about what may or may not happen, Girty could go and deal with Fay after she had Dan safely in the Hospital Wing and cured of this ridiculous love for Vicky.
With a deep breath to try and control her building rage Girty slowly turned around away from the infuriating, love sick Professor Potter and began to make her way back down the corridor, her floating brother behind her, her wand drawn ready to wipe the memory of anyone that might be lingering around the next bend. No one however was waiting for them, much to the relief of Girty, and she was able to unconscious headmaster and the punch drunk Charms Professor to the safety and hiding of the Hospital Wing.
(eww this post was crap. I am sorry. I will try and do better next time.)
